Students and Parents,
I wanted to remind everybody that this month’s tournament is on Sunday, 10/30 at 7 pm Eastern time (6 pm Central, 5 pm Mountain, 4 pm Pacific time). Please keep in mind that this is a new date and time from the beginning of the month. I apologize for all the changes - this month has been very hard for personal reasons.
This is the Zoom link (and the password is Smile, with a capital S).
The rating range was 400-1800.
The tournament is free!
I expect 20-35 to play.
The tournament will go for 60 minutes, until 7pm.
I will be online 10 minutes before (6:50 EST) to help with technical difficulties (If you need more help, you may watch the 1-minute video below).
Log into your lichess.org account and go to Zoom link

On the day of the tournament, have the link open. Your games will start automatically, shortly after some announcements.
👓 TO (JUST) WATCH: I’ll be analyzing the live games for beginners on Zoom. We will be solving live puzzles from everybody’s games. Last time, we found the best moves in others’ games (“how does one win a piece here?” “How do you checkmate in 2 moves?").
